Table 2 Differences in synergy parameters. This table outlines the differences in various synergy parameters for \(45^{\circ }\,\hbox {and}\, 90^{\circ }\) change of direction sprints, including the mean and standard deviation (Mean±SD) of the parameters and their corresponding P values, effect sizes, and other data.
From: Lower limb muscle synergies during deceleration at different change of direction angles
